We can not, and should not, put a quantitative value on the life of Reza Berati, every life lost under these circumstances is a tragedy. All I known is a 23 old young man is dead and answers must be forthcoming.
The Greens, with Labor support will instigate a Senate inquiry into the events of February 16-18 on Manus Island.

Foxy,

Not a word of remorse for the up to 2000 people that died under Labor's watch? Do you share the Greens view that "accidents happen" so it is all OK.

The information on the riots at Xmas Island, Nauru, and Villawood all came out months later after an enquiry. The same will happen here.

Paul,

"All I known is a 23 old young man is dead and answers must be forthcoming." Why not wait for the results of the official enquiry. The coalition is not going to have all the answers before this. This senate enquiry is yet another greens stunt that will be as ineffective as all the others.

At first glance the link is incidental, but a further look and not so.
Unlikely to ever see the light of day from a conservatives key board it demands a look.
And gives evidence not only my party has controlling factions.
Far more too once read.
I do not think we have taken in both the role and the duty's of a Senior Military man ,the target of Conroy's latest but far from rare, our burst.
Surely much more than most a Military leader under secrecy laws is not free to give information as some think.
And,surely he is as that person, under orders ,and just as as surely it it those who gave him those orders who own any blame.

I have no confidence in the Abbott governments willingness to tell the truth on this matter. The sorry track record of both Abbott and Morrison on asylum seekers is obvious to all but the most blinkered of conservative supporters.
The move by The Greens to set up a Senate Inquiry into the Manus Island carnage is far from a "stunt" but rather an opportunity for an open and transparent investigation into the matter, something the Abbott government have been loathed to undertake from the outset.

Paul,

We can always count on your deliberate ignorance of the English language, which is why the greens can never be trusted.

carnage:

n.
1. the slaughter of a great number of people.
2. Archaic. dead bodies, as of those slain in battle.

The track record of Abbott and Morison is clean. At no point have they lied or tried to deceive. They simply have not given the greens and other hypocritical airheads the minute details they want.

The vapid Sarah Hanson Young who brushed off the deaths of many hundreds at sea now wants a senate inquiry into the riot on Manus, and is not happy at the same level of inquiry that went into the "carnage" at Xmas Island, Nauru, and Villawood.

At least it looks as though Electricity Bill is not stupid enough to participate in the greens theatrics and is unlikely to support this moronic green's stunt.
